From the Muromachi period (1336-1573) to the Edo period(1603-1868), Ninja were employed by warring feudal lords in variousregions. The Ninja's missions included night raids, sabotage, and assassination,but the most important mission was to invade the enemy's camp,gather information on the enemy's situation, and convey this
information to the lord.
Thus, because the Ninja needed to survive and return to their lordliving in castles, they often used weapons to protect themselves, suchas Swords, Shurikens, Makibishi etc.
